And he said unto the people, Be ready against the third day: come not at your wives.

They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all.

And there was a great cry of the people and of their wives against their brethren the Jews.

Also that day they offered great sacrifices, and rejoiced: for God had made them rejoice with great joy: the wives also and the children rejoiced: so that the joy of Jerusalem was heard even afar off.

A foolish son is the calamity of his father: and the contentions of a wife are a continual dropping.

Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour onto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered.
